Congratulations! Now you're getting smarter.

This was the punchline from an old cartoon. Diz has a cardboard box and a sign:"Machine to make people smarter, 10 cents." A kid pays Diz a dime and puts the box on the kid's head. After a few minutes the kid says, "I don't feel any different." Diz says,"Just wait" A few more minutes, and the kid says, "This box is a fake! I want my money back!" Diz replies, "Now you're getting smarter!"

Actually, the machine to make people smarter is called an ABX comparator box. Look up the references on google, also check out theaudiocritic.com and Audioholics.com.

Even cable cultists probably won't insist that you buy $5000 in interconnects if you can't hear the difference;it's your system, your pair of ears and your wallet.
